Question:
Regarding the 'aqiqah, is it permissible to slaughter a sheep, or is it necessary to slaughter a male goat?
Answer:
My brother, the sheep is the goat, and the goat is the sheep, or did you mean the goat? It becomes like the goat. This, as you heard, has no sunnah (recommended practice) for it, and a one-year-old does not suffice for it. Yes.
